The garden potatoes are finally starting to sprout in storage now, so we're going to have to make a lot of potato dishes this week! I feel so

for not moving them somewhere else when I got the grow lights up and running (in the same room). Just that bit of light reaching out from under the lamp reflectors triggered the first sprouts within days.

I haven't made scallopped potatoes in months. Might do that tonight. Not sure of the other meal components yet.

I have ground turkey defrosting, so I will be making something with it. We have macaroni noodles, so I'll probably throw together a casserole by adding some vegetables. I wish I had a more definitive plan

Nachos with shredded turkey, tomatoes, and black olives.

OT but do any LA people know where the Bean Mondays tradition came from? I have always wondered.

LadybugSam · 03-05-2012, 02:02 PM

either bean and cheese burritos or raviolis, depending on my energy level later

Red Beans and Rice
Red Beans and Rice is a Monday tradition throughout South Louisiana, but particularly in New Orleans. Years ago, before the age of automatic washing machines, Monday was wash day—which made it a good day to slow simmer a big pot of beans on the stove. And Sunday’s ham yielded a mighty fine ham bone that gave the beans a heavenly flavor … well … that’s how traditions are born.

Beans served over rice added up to a great source of protein in the days when many families couldn’t afford meat regularly. A pot of beans could feed lots of people.

Today, folks add plenty of meat, if they want it. A New Orleans favorite is pickled pork, which local butchers make by soaking pork shoulder in brine. Other additions or accompaniments include smoked sausage, pork chops, ham, salt pork, or tasso (highly seasoned smoked pork).
